Many thanks for your reply. I have a couple of questions.

You said
Name: Mary Norton & William Hait
Date of Registration: Jul-Aug-Sep 1839
Registration district: Winchcomb
Inferred County: Gloucestershire
Volume Number: 11
Page Number: 559
STAIT William
NORTON Mary
North Cotswolds Temple Guiting St Mary
1839 1 10

The last line is 1839 1 10. What is this reference? I have a copy of their marriage certificate dated 13 Aug 1839, so it is not their marriage date.

The marriage certificate indicates the wedding was at the "Church of T. Guiting". Would this have been St. Mary's Church?

You also listed the following:

STAITE William
STAITE NORTON
1841 Cheltenham Winchcombe, Guiting 2 122

STAITE George
STAITE NORTON
1844 North Cotswolds Stow-on-the-Wold, Bourton-on-the-Water 2 420

STAITE Lucy A
STAITE NORTON
1849 Cheltenham Winchcombe, Guiting 5 85

What is the source of these records and what are the references at the end of each record (ie 2 122, 2 429)?

Sorry if I am asking things that should be obvious but I am a yank, who has been researching my family in the US and Canada, and now that I am starting to expand into Europe I find a whole different set of sources, websites, terms, etc. It can be a bit intimidating to us beginners :-)

Thanks again
